Stephen King Addresses The Maine Clown Hysteria on His Facebook Page

The creepy clown hysteria that is happening all across the country reached Maine on Monday with a sighting in Orono. The man who we may have to blame for our fear of clowns posted a message on his Facebook with his take on the hysteria.

Maine's own Stephen King may have created the scariest clown of all in Pennywise from his 1986 novel It and the 1990 ABC miniseries brought the evil clown to our TVs through actor Tim Curry.

So what did the man who knows how to scare us so well have to say about the creepy clown sightings?
